• Hi everyone,

    As you all know, Coffee (Dean) passed away a couple of years ago. I am Dean's ex-wife's husband and happen to have spent my career in tech. Over the years, I occasionally helped Dean with various tech issues.

    When he passed, I worked with his kids to gather the necessary credentials to keep this site running. Since then (and for however long they worked with Coffee), Woodschick and Dirtdame have been maintaining the site and covering the costs. Without their hard work and financial support, CafeHusky would have been lost.

    Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve been working to migrate the site to a free cloud compute instance so that Woodschick and Dirtdame no longer have to fund it. At the same time, I’ve updated the site to a current version of XenForo (the discussion software it runs on). The previous version was outdated and no longer supported.

    Unfortunately, the new software version doesn’t support importing the old site’s styles, so for now, you’ll see the XenForo default style. This may change over time.

    Coffee didn’t document the work he did on the site, so I’ve been digging through the old setup to understand how everything was running. There may still be things I’ve missed. One known issue is that email functionality is not yet working on the new site, but I hope to resolve this over time.

    Thanks for your patience and support!

Looking for a spanking 125 2stroke

No its an independed company that will buy a new bike and rebuild the suspension and do engine work, think its a 5week turnaround on one.
 
Not really that expencive a new yz125 is £5649 the new xc is £6499 so adds less than a grand.
The ktm n huskys start at £6k. But if they have the £500 power parts deal that drops them too the same as jap bike.

It's alot of coin but if i can ride it for a few years n punt it out for £4 k i can do the same again.. Or just hold on to it for 40 years and have a classic.

Will be getting a few questions written down and pull comparisons like seat height for different bikes etc and shooting a few phone calls out.

The 144 is a little spendy, but that would be my choice. Looks like that shop could lower the suspension for ya too. Nice find :thumbsup:
 
If I were you I'd get an 06 and up yz125, they have the best forks out there and every imaginable option in aftermarket parts. I personally prefer the 125 left a 125 but might consider this option which requires no case mod and has a lighter piston than OEM. http://www.maxrpms.com/yz134-big-bore/ The 144s I've ridden do have more in the middle but less over-rev which to me is losing the funnest thing about having a 125.

I have an 08 yz125 with about every mod available. I had about $2,200 in it used and added another $500. I'm going to put the 134 kit in it the next time it's due for a re-plate unless someone buys it off of me before then. It's really not for sale but everyone that rides it claims it's the sweetest 125 they've ever ridden and tells me how bad they want to buy it. Maybe I'll get caught on the right day and sell it.
 
It will be a 125 and stay a 125 as the lady only has provisional, also will be road reged and more than likly new.
If the right bike shows up i will be on it like a rash.
 
I thought even my worn out 144 was much easier to ride than a stock 125. It pulled better off the bottom and would lug around all day which made it really fun to explore and poke around in the woods. And, the 165 does all that and then rips when the PV opens :banana:
My 1st 125 was a Kawasaki Greenstreak! then Elsinores and my ex racing bud had a stable of YZ 2t. The 144 was better than all of them and the 165 is in a class of it's own.
